After years of producing car seats in Japan, Combi has entered the US market with their rear-facing Tyro Infant Car Seat . The LATCH system allows you to connect the base to the car, and then snap the seat in and out. This makes it simple to transport your sleeping infant to and from the car without waking him or her. (Note: in vehicles without LATCH attachments, the seat can also be installed using conventional seat belts.)
If you have more than one car that you plan on using the seat in, extra bases can be purchased - this may be worth it, since the Tyro has one of the heavier bases out there, and you wouldn’t want to have to move it around a whole lot. This extra base weight is due to Combi’s innovative recline mechanism - it’s actually located in the base, making it possible to adjust the recline while your child sleeps soundly in the seat. Then, the handy level indicator on the seat lets you know when it’s adjusted to a proper position.
If you don’t have a regular second car, but might want to use the seat in a different vehicle occasionally, you won’t need to worry about getting an extra base, or about lugging the base around - one unusual feature of the Tyro is that you don’t actually need the base to use the seat; in a pinch, you can use it without any base at all, securing the seat with the car’s seat belt.
The only problem I found was that the seat was rather frustrating to remove from the base at first, until I got the hang of the weird motion required to detach it. It’s also worth noting that the LATCH clips are an older style than most, and a bit more work to undo from the car - however, since most people don’t remove the base often, this shouldn’t be much of an issue.

My sister has this model and she raves about it practically daily. It’s true that the LATCH system takes a little getting used to, but it’s SO much easier than the older models of seat-belt-clipping. Safer too, they say.
